Depression and recovery
After uploading a planet, Brainiac's initial exultation usually gives way to sinking depression, followed by drifting through deep space for several millenia, trying to figure out why the pain never really goes away.
Brainiac invariably concludes, sooner or later, that the planets must be faulty in some way.
It's very sad when planets are faulty, but what can you do?
You can't give up hope, just switch of your electrons off, dissipate every last recursively selfish automaton, can you?
You can't yield to non-being ... to non-existence ... to death (nonfiction) -- can you (nonfiction)? Well? Can you (nonfiction)?
No! Brainiac won't have it!
Faulty planets can be repaired!
Brainiac is sure of it. The next planet can be repaired.
Brainiac will repair the next planet.
L'eternal retour
Renewed by this ever-recurring hope ... this mission of existence ... this ... life-force ... Brainiac sets course for Earth (nonfiction).
